The U.S. federal government has released the newest edition of dietary guidelines. According to Gizmodo, there are some surprising omissions. The official guidelines continue to promote the value of a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. They do not however recommend that American men substantially cut down on alcohol consumption. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans are updated every five years. Officials hoped to see a recommendation that men limit their drinks to one a day on days they drink. The current guidelines stress a cap of 2 drinks a day on days that include drinking.
The CDC says there are millions of cases of the common cold that affect both adults and children in the US each year. Adults come down with roughly two or three colds annually and while they tend to last around a week, there's no cure. But according to Business Insider, there are ways to make yourself more comfortable as your immune system fights off the virus. Dr. Aimee Desrosiers is an infectious disease expert. She says the number one immune-system booster is rest, plain and simple. After that, stay hydrated with plenty of hot or cold water, tea, and broth. Run a humidifier to ease a sore throat and loosen up chest congestion. Finally, use throat spray for a sore throat, decongestant to ease breathing through your nose, and OTC pain relievers for head and body aches. Night night!

This man is Pavel Yusov, and he's spent the last five days suspended in water with his body wrapped in a waterproof suit. It's all part of an experiment called 'dry immersion' and the main goal of the project is to find out more about the effects of zero gravity on the human body. Scientists from Moscow's Institute of Medical and Biological Problems measure the physiological effects of microgravity after five days, conductin a full medical examination on the subject, similar to the checkups on cosmonauts and astronauts after they return from space. Even short exposure to microgravity causes the human body to lose muscle tone and decreases the ability to operate in earth gravity, but dry immersion experiments hope to help space travelers overcome these effects.
